'''Chief EG-X''' is an [[Easter egg]] message that appears on the shell casings ejected by the human based projectile weapons the [[BR55HB SR Battle Rifle|Battle Rifle]], [[MA5C Individual Combat Weapon System|Assault Rifle]], [[M6G Personal Defense Weapon System|Pistol]], [[Sniper Rifle System 99D-S2 Anti-Matériel|Sniper Rifle]], and [[AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun|Machine Gun Turret]]. On the base of these cartridges there is writing that says "CHIEF" then "EG-X"; the first word obviously being a reference to [[John-117]]. As the writing is small it is difficult to read from even a moderate distance, and because in ''[[Halo 3]]'' the bullet casings disappear after a short time, it is easiest to see the writing on the casings in [[Theater]] mode, when you are zoomed in (best done when you are detached from the player). The egg appears in ''Halo 3'', ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''.


In ''[[Halo 3]]'', the human based projectile weapons the [[BR55HB SR Battle Rifle|Battle Rifle]], [[MA5C Individual Combat Weapon System|Assault Rifle]], [[M6G Personal Defense Weapon System|Pistol]], [[Sniper Rifle System 99D-S2 Anti-Matériel|Sniper Rifle]], and [[AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun|Machine Gun Turret]], shell casings are ejected when bullets are fired. On the base of these cartridges there is writing that says '''"CHIEF"''' then '''"EG-X"'''; the first word obviously being a reference to [[John-117]]. As the writing is small it is difficult to read from even a moderate distance, and because in ''Halo 3'' the bullet casings disappear after a short time, it is easiest to see the writing on the casings in [[Theater]] mode, when you are zoomed in (best done when you are detached from the player). This egg also appears in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', despite the Chief being absent from the game as the two use the same engine. They were also present in the Halo: Reach Beta, and [[Halo: Reach]] itself, on the casings ejected by UNSC weaponry.
